one of the theories presented in the video is that there might be some self-sorting going on, where people who are attracted to a more urban-oriented lifestyle (walking, biking, transit) are migrating to cities that already offer higher levels of such, while others who are more inclined to an automobile-oriented lifestyle are going in the opposite direction.
it's a plausible reason why the cities on his "dishonorable mentions" list , where automobile commuting mode share actually
increased over the past decade, were mostly found in the sunbelt.
